    Dining in Paradise! From lobster rolls to ceviche, filet mignon, short ribs with ravioli, to beignets and lemon mouse cake, every bite was amazing!! Sitting on the patio just above the sand with gentle crashing waves at sunset, I can’t think of any better choice for Friday night dinner and beach walk with friends. Everything was perfect in every way! I’m grateful for the Beachcomber, my favorite get away right in my own backyard.

    I will start by saying I was worried the food would not live up to my expectations, however that was not a problem at all. Some of the freshest and best executed dishes I have had. The prices add up quick, but once we were done with the meal it was worth every penny. Favorite dishes included: yellowtail jalapeño, chilean sea bass, ribeye with truffle butter and the mango kakigori shaved iced is a must. The tuna tacos were small but good as well. Server was very attentive without being pushy which was appreciated since we were there closing on a Sunday night. Will definitely visit again when in the Newport area.

    We had an absolutely amazing experience. We had a brand new waiter. It was her first day waiting tables on her own and she was absolutely amazing. She was working under Adam I believe. I don’t remember her name and it was not on my receipt however she was Knowledgeable and available and just perfect in every way. We had the focaccia bread that was amazing! The ravioli were amazing. And we had a burger and the schnitzel and they both exceeded our expectations. We can’t wait to try another one of the restaurants in this partnership!
